Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 463 Zhenhai Pingbo

  The cheerful sailors whistled and prepared to return.

   Occasionally, someone was picked up by Hu Kaishan, and he snarled wildly.

  They didn't vomit while sitting on the bumpy and swaying sea boat, but after Hu Kaishan vomited all over the place, they vomited holding their stomachs.

  The big ship began to return to the port. After arriving at the port the next day, the giant whales at sea did not need to be taken care of by the sailors.

  Dozens of gentry in Ningbo Mansion united and contracted the giant whale.

   When each giant whale comes back, they will send money in full, and each whale will be divided into ten thousand taels and eight thousand taels according to the approximate weight.

Immediately afterwards, they recruited heads and dragged the giant whale ashore with a tugboat. They recruited hundreds of people and skinned the giant whale. This skin can be used to make clothes. Now it is on the market, and many people want to buy it. On the one hand, it can show their identity , on the other hand, is very comfortable to wear.

   And there is also a lot of residual feces in the whale's belly. This is also exchanged for money. Naturally, it can't be wasted. It can be used as fertilizer. As long as it is taken out, many people will come to fight for it.

   Oil can be refined, not only can be made into candles, but also can be used as saponins.

  Even the heart and liver can be processed. It is rich in nutrition and can be sold at a good price.

  As for the most substantial whale meat, there is no need to mention it.

   This is a good deal, and a huge profit.

  Now the gentry have no hostility towards the water village, and raised their thumbs up when they mentioned the water village.

  The number of civilians recruited is getting bigger and bigger, and many people no longer work in agriculture, but live around whales and yellow croakers.

  Ningbo has a lot of people and less land, and there are enough people. Because of the huge profits from selling large yellow croakers and whale meat, the gentry pay high wages, and even attract many foreigners.

  The gentry now only hate that the boats in the water village are too small, and they also contracted the sale of yellow croakers in the water village.

  After obtaining the large yellow croaker, they will handle everything, either making salted fish, or letting them dry the fish in the sun, and some people even dug ice cellars specially to store the yellow croaker that has just entered the port.

   In this way, Beiwowei can concentrate on nothing else. Although a lot of profits are taken by local gentry and merchants, at least they don't have to worry about other things.

  Wen Yansheng, the prefect of Ningbo, has now become a good official praised by the gentry. This prefect Wen is really a model of inaction.

The boat had landed, and the sailors disembarked. After resting, Qi Jingtong waved his whip and began to order people to assemble. With the sound of drums, all the sailors, who had eaten their ears and waists, became energetic again. practice.

  The shouts of training in the water village, accompanied by the noisy hawking outside the water village, complement each other.

This is a vulgar world. In this world, everyone's mind revolves around the most mundane things in the world. There is no room for elegance here. Work hard tomorrow.

  The sailors were practicing the "Three Talents Formation" under the scorching sun at this time. This Three Talents Formation was the mandarin duck formation of the Qi family army. After experiencing countless battles, it was improved based on actual combat experience.

Among them, the seniors are divided into big and small. The formation of the juniors is to turn the formation of two teams side by side into a horizontal team. The captain holds a card in the center, and there is a wolf on the left and right. At the same time, countless small formations intertwined with fangs, forming a horizontal plane like a long snake.

  The so-called wolf spear is a kind of spear. There are quite a few giant spears in the Western phalanx. Taking advantage of its length, it is enough to block the enemy from it, so that Japanese pirates with only short soldiers cannot approach, and they can directly stab the enemy! At the same time, the spearman waits for an opportunity to attack, as a supplement, and the card **** acts as a defense.

  At the same time, there is also a special cavalry team in the sailor battalion. The horse team guards the left and right sides of the formation. When attacking, they are responsible for assaulting the enemy's flanks.

As for the rear team, it is the reserve team. On the one hand, it is a supplement, and on the other hand, it is equipped with firecrackers. When the weather is suitable, they will attack with firecrackers when the enemy is not close, and once the short soldiers are handed over, they will retreat. To the rear team, respond at any time.

  Any formation, in fact, has its huge lethality.

   It can be effective, but it needs to be practiced hard.

After Qi Jingtong came here, he was mainly responsible for the drills of the senior and junior talents. He was meticulous and did not dare to be careless in the slightest. He asked the sailors to practice the same movement a hundred times or a thousand times. He always carried the whip Walking around in the queue, even though the sun was scorching and he was sweating profusely all over his body, and the sweat stuck to his eyes, it was very uncomfortable, but he didn't complain.

  The sailors stabbed with spears and wolves again and again, shouting until smoke came out of their throats, and the shields were raised again and again, lowered, and raised again...

  The gunners pulled to the school field on the other side, reloaded, shot, reloaded, and the gunpowder smoke filled the air.

  A cavalry formation composed of thirty or forty people circled the coast of the harbor, riding horses back and forth.

  This kind of drill was tiring, but the sailors didn't complain at all.

They have the simplest concept, whoever supports them should work hard for them. The Prince Zhu in Beijing, Lord Xinjian, and Tang Xiuzhuan and others spent money to buy their own lives. His humble life is worthless, and his only strength is such strength.

   Their skin was scorched by the scorching sun, peeling off layer after layer of skin. Their bodies were like being in a steamer, and they were all greasy and dripping with water.

   But there is a green light in these eyes. They are wolves, a group of hungry wolves looking for food!

  ………

   Whenever this time, Tang Yin would stand on a cliff, watching the rolling waves below the cliff! When looking at the sea level in the distance, there is always a bit of poetic melancholy.

  Hu Kaishan, who had taught soldiers how to ride horses, would climb here to find Tang Xiuzhuan, and he could always bring Tang Yin back from this harbor.

  Hu Kaishan said full of air: "Tang Xiuzhuan, it's time to eat."

   "Oh." Tang Yin responded without looking back.

  He suddenly said: "Old Hu."

   "Tang Xiu wrote..."

  Tang Yindao: "The size of this world is really beyond people's imagination."

Hu Kaishan pressed the handle of the knife at his waist, and with his tall and straight body under the setting sun, a huge figure fell. He raised his head, looked at the setting sun, felt the waves crashing against the cliff under his feet, and said in his mouth: "Well .”

   "Will you miss my mentor?"

   "You mean benefactor?"

  Tang Yin's Rushan, was blown by the sea breeze and his clothes fluttered. He smiled and glanced at Hu Kaishan.

  Hu Kaishan grinned: "Naturally, besides my girls, I just miss my benefactor."

  Tang Yin seemed to be touched by something suddenly, his eyes suddenly looked a little silent, he shook his head, and then smiled wryly: "I won't miss my wife."

  Deep in Tang Yin's heart, there seems to be a painful memory that cannot be shaken off. Although he is a talented man, he is not romantic. The relationship between his wife and him is very dull!

  Tang Yin raised his eyes, the afterglow of the setting sun was reflected in his eyes, and then said: "I have been thinking about it all day long, my teacher...how is it now?"

  Hu Kaishan said: "If you find a girl, you won't think so much."

   Tang Yin shook his head and said, "I still miss someone..."

  Hu Kaishan said: "Bitch?"

  Tang Yin shook his head again: "My best friend, he is also a disciple of my mentor..."

   "Isn't Engong only five disciples? You... and Wang Xianggong, Ouyang Xianggong..."

"That's my mentor's joke. There is another one. His name is Xu Jing. He is my best friend. After all, he is my younger brother. The reason why my mentor said again and again that he has only five disciples is not understood by others, but I know, it's actually because my mentor misses him very much."

   "..." Hu Kaishan was silent, obviously he couldn't understand it either.

"Brother Xu was ordered by his mentor to go to sea. Since he went out to sea, the mentor has rarely mentioned Brother Xu, because the mentor knows that Brother Xu is really close to death. I'm afraid... no matter how difficult it is to come back alive, he has become the heart of the mentor. Deep pain, do you know? The more the mentor doesn’t mention him, the more it means that if the mentor mentions him, his heart will hurt...It hurts...The mentor has high hopes for Brother Xu, and the relationship between our mentor and apprentice is not ordinary people can compare...

Speaking of this, Tang Yin closed his eyes, letting the sea breeze blow the crystal tears in the corners of his eyes: "I seldom mention Brother Xu, but I dream of him again and again, dreaming that he was buried under the thousands of miles of blue waves, dreaming of him Very cold, very cold, in the deep seabed, even if I am a ghost, I still suffer from the cold pain. Like a mentor, I try not to think about it, I only hope that he is still alive, but...it has been two years...two years In the past, there was still no news of him...I think...Brother Xu has already...eh..."

   "Perhaps this Brother Xu, who is overseas, is too happy to think about leaving." Hu Kaishan grinned, trying to comfort Tang Yin with these half-joking words.

Tang Yin shook his head and said: "You won't understand. I know Brother Xu. Brother Xu has many shortcomings, but he treats his teacher... differently. No matter where he is, at the end of the world, as long as he can walk, even if he is still alive , he will definitely come back, if he does not come back, there is only one possibility..."

   But at this point, Tang Yin obviously didn't want to go any further. After a while, he smiled wryly and said: "Let's go, let's go back, it's very windy here."

He turned around, his body trembling slightly, the joyful shouts of sailors screaming in the distance did not make his complexion relax, he was already the officer of the Ming Dynasty who supervised the Japanese guards in the temperance capital, and was no longer the romantic talent that people talked about. It's not the unrestrained Tang Jieyuan, he can't laugh out loud, nor can he cry, he can only sullen his face to make himself look more manly.

The straightforward Hu Kaishan couldn't bear it: "No wonder when I was in Beijing, I always saw Engong watching the moon alone in the courtyard in the middle of the night, silently. I thought he was thinking about women, but I didn't expect... Eh…"

   Tang Yin wrapped himself in a long coat to prevent it from being blown away by the sea breeze. He turned his back and slowly walked down the cliff! Sudden…

  Hu Kaishan's body shook, and he shouted: "Boat...Look! There is a boat!"
